Hey tmaxx junkies. Why is there a fuel filter on the vent tube. The piece of fuel line for the tuned pipe to the top of the tank?:confused: Am I that far behind or is it just there because it wants to be?

[Been 2780]

wow, why do u have 3 fuel filters on it?

[master_of_desaster]

looks great MaxxJunkie! great pick up but i'd get rid of that spektrum servo and replace it with a JR servo

this is just a mock up build . The spektrum servo is going to be replaced by a ace 1015 201 oz tq. Digi servo and the os .28xz motor is going to be replaced by a eb mods trinity .24 extech but that motor is 359.00 and will have to wait .this will not see any action this year unless i take it to the indoor track by chi town.

well 2 are to the motor to hold more fuel and i was told it is good to have one on the exhaust so i will try it and see if it makes any differance

[dale_gribble]

That is one fine ride there... :D

Looks good. I have been using a fuel filter as a exhaust gas cooler. I tie mine down towards the front of the truck to keep the air moving across it. I am not for sure about the true effects that is has but this week while racing in a 20 mintue A-main, I pitted for fuel only once. When the race was over the engine was only at a 198 degrees. So, she was running a little rich but still provided me with 10 minutes of fuel. I will take those results any day of the week and twice on Sunday !

[dale_gribble]

Put the body on it that I painted and snap a shot... I want to see how it looks with those wheel disc stickers.
